My fiancé and I visited the tasting room today and were so impressed. The new buildings are beautiful, the tasting room, the restaurant or the patio, all perfect places to enjoy a glass of their delicious wine. Tristan took incredible care of us, the very definition of hospitality. Honestly, five stars aren't enough to demonstrate what a wonderful experience this was. Thank you to all the Monserate staff for a lovely afternoon.

I have been lucky enough to photograph multiple weddings at Monserate's event spaces and I can honestly say that it is one of my favorite wedding venues! The options are endless, the facilities are brand new, modern, clean and look straight out of a european wedding pinterest board. The spaces all flow, the staff are on top of everything and have not only the couple's but the vendor's best interests in mind at all times. This is a great wedding venue tucked away with many MANY idyllic photo opportunities.

My husband and I had our wedding at Monserate Winery's new venue, Villa de Fiore, in July. I want to start off by saying, the entire property itself is absolutely GORGEOUS. Before choosing this venue, we had toured a lot of other venues in SoCal and nothing else compared to the sheer beauty of the architecture and natural surroundings here. Everything about the property makes you feel like you have been transported to the Italian countryside. The buildings were beautifully designed to enhance the natural greenery and there is an overall feeling of elevated elegance. Throughout the entire planning process, the wedding and events staff was attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed in order for the big day to run smoothly. Our venue coordinator was Carissa, and we also worked with Josh at times, both of which were pleasant and accommodating, continuously going out of their way to ensure we were happy. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and all of our guests couldn't stop raving about how beautiful the setting was, the friendly staff, the delicious drinks and wine, and how perfect the layout of the entire venue was. We wanted an indoor-outdoor feel, which was exactly what Villa de Fiore offered with the large sliding glass doors into the reception space. Our guests also noted the small details like the walking path around the pond leading to the welcome table, the ceremony in front of the trees, the pond with a fountain, the expansive courtyard for cocktail hour, and the adjoining built-in bar. I would highly recommend Monserate Winery to any other couples looking for the elegant, Italian feel right here in Southern California! I have attached some of our sneak peeks, and as you can see, the Monserate backdrop makes for absolutely breathtaking photos that we will cherish for years to come!

My first time there yesterday and it was nice to even witness a wedding on the other side. It is great for us locals who don't want to travel to Temecula. The food is great , service is nice you can never not get anything from staff very attentive. I went as a guest but wouldn't mind being a member. Goat cheese and beet salad is great just add chicken breast 😊..

We became wine club members last year during our first visit. The atmosphere is amazing and we have found some of our favorite wines (Barbera, Montepulciano and Fedele). More than anything else, we love the staff! We look forward to our monthly visits. 12-31-24 Update...evidently, I never hit send on this post. The new winery building and tasting rooms are so nice. Our new favorite wine is the Sagrantino. 🍷🥰🍷

This is a beautiful winery, and they have super yummy food. On the weekends there's live music as well. Come see our hidden gem❣️They have fun events here dancing, crafts, weddings, comedy, movie nights, and trivia. Lots of fun‼️

Update: Their buildings for the wine tasting rooms are complete, and the restaurant is planned to open❣️. Everything looks beautiful❣️ It's a gem to our town of Fallbrook... come see for yourself❣️

We had our 1st meal at the new restaurant 7/24/24 with friends. Reservation are recommended, but with them being on the pricey side... you can most likely get in during the week. They're only open until 5 pm, and the last seating is 3:30 pm. Our food was good, but for the price... I'd rather eat in the courtyard and order the salads or La Bianca pizza, it's amazing, and not offered in the restaurant❣️ I've since learned that this pizza is no longer offered, I'm so bummed. ☹️

This is a fabulous place for weddings and other special events, so keep them in mind❣️

This is my first visit since the new building has been open. I went with a good Friend, that is a wine member and she showed me around. The place is beautiful, and I really enjoyed the layout of the grounds including the beautiful waterfall, the patio area, and the tasting rooms. We both did a wine tasting and most of them very good. I was also very impressed with the food as well.
